Did you know that Belgium tried to prosecute George W. Bush for war crimes? Me neither!

The things you learn when you search out alternative press. Here is an article that was posted on Commondreams.org regarding the possibility that Canada could grow some balls and prosecute W. I kid Canada, because I love.
Should Canada Indict Bush?

Have you been watching all of the resignations for Bush's Administration and the CIA? Scary world we are living in. The thing that scares me most is that we are going back to an isolationist mentality of foreign policy only much more agressive and offensive. Condoleeza Rice is going to be our representative out there in the world and I personally don't think she is capable. She is shrewd, yes, but in terms of foreign affairs, she doesn't cut it. She stood before the 9/11 Commission and told them that we realized after 9/11 that the oceans wouldn't protect us from terrorism anymore. PLEASE. We figured that after Pearl Harbor, sweetheart. It is really easy for me to criticize her and call her stupid, right? Because underneath that we know she is not stupid. She has an agenda. The Bush Administration has an agenda and she is loyal to them. She is like that character Bennie in The Mummy when he says something like he would rather be a servant of the devil than feel his wrath, I am paraphrasing because its been a while, but you know what I mean. Or maybe I am giving her too much credit. Maybe she truly believes in W. and his agenda and that this agenda is in the best interest of the country or at least in her best interest.

Meanwhile, we have bigger fish to fry. Remember our old pals from the Cold War? They are back, and they are doing the same stuff America is doing. So how can we complain? No, I am really asking! How CAN we complain?
Arrested for Requesting Election Results and also Russia developing new Nuclear Missile.
the first article is pretty much about falsifying elections but the second one is about Russia, under the guise of fighting terrorism, is developing a new nuclear missile that can " carry up to 10 nuclear warheads weighing a total of 4.4 tons." Fun! It is also going to have a range of more than 6,000 miles and will be harder to detect. More Fun!
Can you tell me how this kind of weapon is going to be useful in fighting terrorism? Will this be used to blow up a bunker or basement apartment somewhere in the world where the terrorists meet to have a pot luck dinner? No. This kind of weapon will only be used for irradicating a country and terrorists don't have a nation, no matter what your evening news tells you, thats why they are so hard to fight. We are fighting and idealogy and so are they, not a land mass. And which country do you think that they are aiming those warheads at?
"Earlier this year, a senior Defense Ministry official was quoted as telling news agencies that Russia had developed a weapon that could make the United States' proposed missile-defense system useless. Details were not given, but military analysts said the claimed new weapon could be a hypersonic cruise missile or maneuverable ballistic missile warheads."

And what is the distance between Moscow and Washington? I am glad you asked, because I already found out. 4862.756827041068 miles. Courtesy of Great Circle Distances Between Capital Cities.

Also, KMart and Sears are merging. When Martha Stewart gets out of prison, do you think that she will do commercials with Ty the guy who used to be on Trading Spaces? Just a thought.

On a personal note, I feel there is no dignity in a B+. If you are an educator, why would you decide on such a self-esteem shattering grade? You are saying that a student is not good enough for an A-, but still slightly more intelligent than a B. Is the plus just pity? What's the point of even going to class? Just get a job delivering newspapers where you don't have to read or write, just count change and tell people to have a good day. So what if my sentences are awkward and convaluted? It's part of my charm!
Dick.
